Practicing fakies, I ride up to a metal fence and go into It a little too hard and my wheel got jammed into the fence so i'm stood there with my wheel stuck in the fence.

Haha, you gotta hate being dragged! I remember when I got dragged, but not by my bike... a TUBE! Totally non-bike but when I was a little kid, like 4, I when to an island with huge waves... I got hit by one of them and I got dragged into the water :S almost died until my dad pulled me out of a wave that was at least 7foot high...

I was riding with my friend that dosen't really mtb, he just has a cheap bike that he rides around on. I was ahead of him and we hit this busy 4 way intersection, and the way I was going I had to ride straight through the right hand turn lane and hop up onto to island at the corner to cross. My j-hops were pretty much crap at this point. So I was riding at the curb (it was a little higher than a normal one), pulled the front wheel up, didn't lean back in time (my speed was right in between that of having to hop the whole bike up at the same time and hopping up one tire by another tire) and my back tire hit and I fell off and got scraped up. It was pretty embarrassing cause it was just a curb and I crashed trying to look cool hoping up it.

i was at a jump spot this summer and was just planning on hitting this set of jumps nice and easy, maybe an x-up or two. anyway on the third jump i must have pushed on a pedal cause my bike swung way out in front of me and just stayed up there (like the beginnings of the biggest tail-whip ever). suffice to say the bike remained out in front of me and i hung onto the bars in a seated position. that's how we landed; bike upside down on the seat and me on my ass, really hard. in the end i got a huge skid mark and some bruising, my bike got bent seat rails and everyone else got a good laugh.

not really bike related, but still very embarassing
it was like 2 weeks ago and i was at a buddys and i had taken my snowboard with me, so i went to go to subway and of course i didnt tie my boots right up, cuz whats the point, im gonna be like 5 mins. so i started to head across the intersection and thanks got it was a red light, but my boot laces got caught on the other boot and i took a nice header right in the middle of the intersection.
of course i got up and walked it off like nothing happened. but i could see everyone laffing their asses off in their cars lol

Waiting for more people to show up to an evening downtown ride, I was screwing around by out meeting spot, a baseball stadium. On game day. I go into a super fast hop 180, and massively over-rotate a slider. For 10 feet, all you hear is the grinding squealing sound of my magnesium pedals and my bar ends along the ground. People all around turned to see what was going on, me sliding on my ass tangled in my bike. VERY embarassing, since that's right when the owner of my LBS showed up for the ride.
